Peach Dutch Baby Pancake with Cherry Compote Reviews

This puffy, soufflé-like
pancake is just as good for dessert as it is
for breakfast. Don't worry when it deflates
as soon as it's removed from the oven;
that's exactly what's supposed to happen,
forming a well for the cherry compote.
Serve it immediately, right from the skillet.

Made it for dinner for the family. Very good. Probably should have cooked the peaches a bit longer before adding the batter. Didn't make the cherries so added a bit of nutmeg and cinnamon to the peaches.

Just made this this morning. Relatively easy to assemble and cook. Made as per recipe and it looked great. The pancake was rather dense. Unfortunately it tasted rather bland. Should have made a peach/cherry cobbler.

Made this for supper last Sunday and will be making it again today. Followed the recipe exactly, but added a splash of Kirsch to the cherries as recommended by another reviewer. Didn't have a 10" iron skillet, so I used my 5 quart Le Creuset French oven. Excellent!

Pancake was really good, I will even try this in the winter with frozen peach slices. I usually stick to the recipe EXACTLY, but we had fresh, smashed raspberries on hand so we mixed those with real maple syrup and used instead of the cranberry compote. I think the tartness of the berries was a nice contrast. All in all, a very seasonal, yummy dinner for us.
